We stayed at the Santa Cruz KOA and I have nothing but wonderful things to say about this establishment. There were so many activities for the kids onsite and the employees were super friendly. The younger kids loved the train ride through the campsite and the older boys even liked the jumping pillow. In the end, we managed and the kids had a fabulous time. That’s all that matters, right? ;)

All I did was stuff the bag with paper to give it some kind of form and then started gluing on the flower petals. I started my rows from the bottom of the bag and worked my way up. That way I was able to see an open spots once I was done.

My Love~ Six years ago I married by best friend. And six years later, I am still married to you! I may joke you only married me because you knocked me up. I may joke that you’ll never leave me because you can’t afford the alimony and child support. ;) But truth be told, I LOVE YOU MORE THEN LIFE ITSELF. Without you in my life I would be a lost soul walking a path to nowhere. As silly as it may sound, you truly do complete me. You are not only my husband and the best father I could have ever imagined for our children, but you are my life. My heart. My soul. You are my world. 
~P.S. Babe, I’m going green this year. This is your card. XOXO :)
